ROMA (ITALPRESS) – Ten games in the Italian night of the NBA regular season. And the scene takes a veteran and a rookie. Kevin Durant is the protagonist with 40 points and eight rebounds of the Houston Rockets outdoor victory on the Orlando Magic parquet with a score of 108-113. The 37-year-old struggle from the arch (2/10 to the three-shot), but this does not affect his performance. It is not enough on 6/10 from the long distance and the 30 points of Desmond Bane to the Magic, which continue to struggle in the search for continuity.
The 20-year-old Charlotte Hornets Kon Knueppel continues, which in the success for 109-133 against the Indiana Pacers goes eight times from the arch and establishes the new record of triples for a rookie in a single season of Nba (209), surpassing the previous one of Keegan Murray. Record evening also for Tyrese Maxey, who beats the record in Philadelphia 76ers for triples made in career (886, one more than Allen Iverson), closing with five triples and 28 points in the 124-117 win over the Miami Heat.
The positive moment of the San Antonio Spurs, who find the eleventh consecutive victory and armor the second place to the west. The Brooklyn Nets, defeated 110-126. Stronger than the absences the Phoenix Suns who manage to have the best of the Los Angeles Lakers (113-110), forced to count with the third consecutive defeat despite a Luka Doncic from 41 points, eight rebounds and eight assists. The other part of Los Angeles does not smile. The Clippers undergo an internal ko against the Minnesota Timberwolves (88-94). Protagonist is the usual Anthony Edwards who signs 31 points. In the other games of the night, the Atlanta Hawks surpass the Washington Wizards for 126-96, while the Portland Trail Blazers win at Chicago Bulls for 112-121. Outer success also for the Sacramento Kings, which impose on 121-130 on the parquet of the Dallas Mavericks, and for the New Orleans Pelicans, who win 118-129 against Utah Jazz.
